The Cleveland Browns placed Dawand Jones on season-ending injured reserve Tuesday and signed fellow offensive tackle Geron Christian to the 53-man roster off the Los Angeles Rams’ practice squad.
Jones sustained a fractured fibula when linemate Wyatt Teller rolled into his left leg during the second quarter of Cleveland’s 35-14 loss to the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.
Jones made his third start at left tackle Sunday and eighth overall this season. The 6-foot-8, 374-pounder got the nod at right tackle five times earlier in the campaign.
Germain Ifedi replaced Jones at left tackle and likely will do so again then the Browns (2-8) host the Pittsburgh Steelers (8-2) on Thursday.
Jones, 23, was a fourth-round pick out of Ohio State in 2023. He has started 17 of 21 games played for Cleveland.
Jones started seven games in 2023 in place of injured star right tackle Jack Conklin. He sustained a sprained knee in December and missed the final five games.
Christian, 28, started nine games for the Browns last season and played in one game with the Rams in 2024.
He has appeared in 59 career games (25 starts) since the Washington franchise selected him in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
